    Overall good to plug and play over wifi. but it will not work over VPN and we can play at the medium and high quality buffering options. always needs to use the lowest option.

    I bought it for the simple fact I could control it with the pc or a mobile device. HBO,Netflix,Hulu & YouTube all support it nicely along with pandora & a couple others.

    It does what it says. It's great for any mobile device that has YouTube or the Chrome browser to be viewed on a TV. Go one for my parents and they have no issues using it.

    Great for multi-device households to broadcast to your TV from commonly used apps. Not as much content and doesn't work as a stand-alone device like solutions such as Roku.

    bought for my non-smart TV, can watch youtube video on TV now. Hope it could also put amazon prime video on TV, has to use Wii for amazon prime now, not very convenient.

    I don't use Neflix and Hulu. I mainly stream Asian drama through Viki and dramafever. Chromecast only support Viki but not dramafever. The usefulness of the device really depends on what web site you use. For Viki, streaming quality is acceptable but certainly not as good as streaming from computer. It probably is not as good as my 1st gen LG google TV but it is good enough for my second TV that do not support streaming internally. It is cheap, if it support the site that you used for streaming, it is worth the price.

    The Chromecast was setup in minutes. I had to buy an HDMI switch to get the sound, but that was also a breeze to get working. I have had absolutely no problems with it.
